Reinforced masonry (RM) walls are mostly used in low to mid rise residential/industrial buildings in cyclonic and seismic regions. They are conventionally constructed with grout …
The stress–strain characteristics of reinforced masonry (RM) under axial compression should be correctly understood to effectively analyse and design RM elements. However …

The provisions pertaining to design of reinforced masonry (RM) walls under axial compression in the Australian masonry standard AS 3700 (2018 version) have been revised …
This paper presents the development of 3D finite element (FE) technique to model and analyse reinforced masonry (RM) walls under axial compression. The Arc-length algorithm …
Partially grouted reinforced masonry (PG-RM) shear walls have a vast presence in many countries, even in seismic-prone regions. These walls have had acceptable seismic …
The inherent strength and durability of masonry arches is eminent through many historical structures still existing to this day. Amidst a wide range of retaining wall types and …
This paper presents the outcome of a research study carried out to assess the eccentric compression behaviour of reinforced concrete block masonry (RM) walls. The design …
Recent changes in the Australian reinforced concrete design standards (AS 3600) specify that reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls should have double layers of reinforcement …
Reinforced masonry boundary elements (RMBEs) are critical components in determining the lateral response of reinforced masonry structural walls with boundary elements …
